Description
She had to run to catch up with his long stride as he moved along the corridor.
"Captain!" She called out excitedly. "Slow your ass down!"
Navarre laughed as he glanced back at her, but maintained his pace.
"Back to business in one hour, Blue." He smiled. "I expect your ass to be in engineering."
"So soon?" She looked panicked for a moment. "But the Starship..."
"Will still be there." He cut her off mid-sentence. He glanced over at the pads clutched tightly in her hand. "Your survey report on the Daring?"
"Yes." She brightened back up.
"It's upside down." He again laughed at her.
"You can make me so mad at times." She grinned as she flipped the pads back around. "It doesn't matter. I've got it memorized."
"I'm not surprised." He rolled his eyes. "Bring all you have to my office later this evening. Six bells." He glanced over and winked. "We can discuss your findings at that time."
Really?" She clutched the pads to her chest. "Were you aware, it's not actually a frigate or a cruiser?"
"Blue." He glanced back over. "It's a basic hull configuration, but with the setup within as a Destroyer." He then shook his head. "A very outdated one at that."
"But the potential." Blue went on excitedly. "One of the last hard shield starship of the old lines."
"Yeeesss." Navarre smiled. "Discontinued with the discovery of alternative hull materials and the more advanced shielding technology." He stopped and turned to face her. "Blue." He smiled broadly. "I know. Engineering, now." He turned and headed back along the corridor. "Six bells, Blue."
"Ooooh!" She clenched her fist as her arms went rigid to her sides. "Six bells!" Shr grumbled as she slowly turned.

She's really up for working on that starship! Great chapter!
thank you. An engineer in every way.
She doesn't like being pulled away from investigating that ship. Like their causal conversation style :)
and they are back to work. thanks.
